New France flag . Tags:Europe 31 comments Wait really? They chose a darker blue? I thought this was the old old flag that got changed back I didn’t know you could just change your flag. I got some ideas. New one looks better ngl As someone that enjoyed the deeper shade of green we used to have on our flag, I think the “new” French flag is sexy af. I find it sad in a way because Valérie Giscard d’Estaing changed the blue in 1976 to match the blue of the EU’s flag. I liked the symbol it showed. French Empire is back, nice Is there no-one else here that doesn’t like it? It looks too militaristic to me I like the darker colors. All flags should have an official dark-mode version that is darker and the white is replaced by black. /hj i like the newer one, but the striking blue of the old flag has a certain charm to it Damn, I kinda like this darker blue tone. The new-old one looked like a vertical netherlands flag anyway Oh, very well, a bit more and we have the beautiful black white red scheme of the Deutsches Reich. Finally they understood I like both! Hehe, I imagine all the people with poor colour vision being very confused by this post. Using Tommy Hilfiger colors i love it Rude. How am I going to get square Dutch flag items for cheaper now? I love the Prussian blue I don’t know… the red is too bright compared to the blue now, it’s not well balanced. I prefer [the flag used from 1794 to 1958](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_France#/media/File:Flag_of_France_(1794%E2%80%931815,_1830%E2%80%931958).svg), with a darker red. 6th republic incoming The old one looks now exactly like what happens when socks are wore and you a new one. Can we be next? Please? The new ones looks like something I can’t afford. The new one is better, it is a more elegant shade of blue. Actually looks much better Damm, france got depressed A question for the French (or anyone that knows French history): Isnt the “New” Flag technically the “Older” one? Wasnt the flag of France like this before (i think) ww2? [Legit question] Tommy Hilfiger colours? I always thought the french flag looked better in old paintings.
